Contracts, Dimona declarations and NSSO (ONSS) obligations handled by us: no paperwork on your side.
An event hostess does far more than smile at the door. She knows your running order, the venue layout and the names of your key guests. When a speaker is looking for their room or a delegate has lost their badge, she is the one they turn to. We select multilingual, well-presented profiles with a feel for protocol and real experience of conferences, trade shows and VIP events.
European institutions, event agencies and brands: since 1996, Protéine has provided qualified teams for events in Brussels and throughout Belgium.

Delegate registration, badge handout, multilingual directions between rooms and support for speakers. Our hostesses know the codes of the international and institutional congresses held in Brussels.
Stand welcome, visitor badge scanning, quick lead qualification and hand-off to your sales team. A friendly presence that turns people walking past your stand into useful meetings.
Galas, official dinners and openings: formal guest welcome, guest list control and support for dignitaries. Profiles chosen for their poise and discretion.
An event hostess is the first person your guests meet. She welcomes them, checks their registration, hands them a badge, points them to the right room and answers their questions, from the first arrival to the last departure. At a conference, a trade show or a reception, she sets the tone of the event before anyone has even taken the stage.
At Protéine, this role is filled by hosts and hostesses selected for three qualities: a polished appearance, a genuine sense of service and fluency in several languages. Since 1996, our teams have welcomed the public at more than 25,000 events in Brussels and across Belgium.
Her tasks vary with the format, but the same stages come up almost every time:
Each team receives a detailed briefing 24 to 48 hours before the event: running order, venue layout, VIP list, key messages and your brand guidelines. On the day, a dedicated coordinator stays on site or reachable at all times.
In 2024, Brussels was the world's leading city for international meetings, according to the Union of International Associations (UIA) ranking, with 388 congresses. In that context, speaking each delegate's language is not a bonus: it is the bare minimum.
Our conference hostesses speak at least French, Dutch and English, and on request we bring in profiles who speak German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Ukrainian, Mandarin or Arabic. They know the codes of institutional and European events: registering delegations, respecting protocol, discretion and punctuality. The European Commission is among the organisations that trust us with welcoming guests at their events. Inside the meeting rooms, our conference assistants take over for the sessions and the speakers.
At a trade show, the hostess is the first contact between your stand and your future customers. She catches visitors' attention, welcomes them, scans their badges, qualifies their needs in a few questions and directs them to the right salesperson at the right moment. Your sales team spends its time with qualified leads rather than on the welcome desk.
Our teams work at the major shows at Brussels Expo as well as at more specialised fairs. For a presence that goes beyond welcoming visitors, with product demonstrations or sales activation, our product specialists take over.
The job is the same, and our teams are mixed. The choice mainly depends on the image you want to project and the constraints of the venue: a formal gala, a car stand or a medical congress do not call for the same profile. We build the team with you, taking into account languages, experience of the format and the outfit you have in mind. For the day-to-day front desk of your offices rather than an event, turn to our corporate receptionists.
The right number depends less on the number of guests than on how they arrive. Four questions are enough to size the team:
Your Protéine coordinator works out the staffing with you during the initial briefing, then sends you a free, no-obligation quote within 24 business hours.
A community of more than 1,900 hosts, hostesses and stewards selected for their languages, their experience and their positive energy. Event after event, you can build a list of preferred profiles so you see the same faces at every edition.
No surprises on the day: a 24/7 emergency line, and a back-up plan in case of a last-minute absence.
Full Belgian compliance: contracts, Dimona declarations and NSSO (ONSS) obligations are handled by us. There is no paperwork for you to deal with.
Outfits that reflect your brand: thanks to our Mix & Match system and more than 50 accessory colours, the team wears the colours of your event.
Protéine works in Brussels, Flanders and Wallonia, for one-day events as well as assignments lasting several weeks.
